Because, the author of GKrellM think that OpenSSL' license doesn't
match with GPL. From ChangeLog:
* Samuel Mimram patch: preferentially link to gnutls over
openssl to avoid GPL license compatibility issue.
I think it is better that a package of GKrellM should obey the
author's policy. So, I choose to use GnuTLS by default.
Still, you can use OpenSSL by specifying WITH_OPENSSL=yes.
